Loved By Our Customers
From automotive wiring diagram designers to harness manufacturers, we’ve helped clients around the world improve their engineering processes. Please do not take our word for it, if you would like an industry reference please contact us and we will happily refer you to our existing customers
Nick Carter
Technical Director, RaffendayWe've been manufacturing high quality, competitively priced wiring harnesses for over 25 years, supplying the Automotive, Marine and Industrial markets. Having the right software tools is a major factor in our competitiveness and success. Several years ago it became clear that our existing harness design and development software package was not keeping up with fast-changing design and manufacturing techniques. Arcadia is more responsive, and its tight integration of design and manufacture enables us to work more closely with our customers
David Rothera
Vehicle Electronic Engineer, RiversimpleThe Arcadia tool is excellent in several respects, but what really stands out is the enthusiasm and support of the Cadonix team. This will be key for us as we address the very specific challenges of creating a ground-breaking vehicle and delivering it on time
Matt Smith
Senior Electrical Engineer, JankelJankel requires a state of the art electrical CAD environment that fully supports our careful test and release procedures. Arcadia stood out in terms of ease of use and flexibility, offering full electrical systems analysis, and supporting design for manufacture. A key requirement for us was interfacing the tool to our SAP purchasing environment and SolidWorks EPDM (Enterprise Product Data Management) which we use to store and manage our engineering data. Cadonix worked with us to implement this functionality. The support we've had from the Cadonix team has been exceptional, and they have been very supportive in adapting Arcadia to suit our specific needs.

President, Michael Stephen ManufacturingThe sample Harness I created during my trial of Arcadia built up absolutely perfectly using the calculated lengths directly from the software. Using my previous methods, even on a harness half this size, I would have made at least 3 errors on average. I have recommended this software to all my customers.

Compare Tools & Services
Before choosing your next CAD package, it is important that you are comparing all the features that will make a positive difference to your engineering workflow. Beware of long lists of features your engineers or organisation will never use, especially if you are paying extra for them!
Turn Key Solution
Cadonix works with you to ensure that your engineers can be productive as soon as you get your Arcadia access. This means frames, libraries, training will already be in place as part of our on-boarding process.
V/S
Hidden Overheads
Many of our competitors have a habit of selling you the dream and then selling you the add-on packages and engineering charges to get you on-boarded. Never make any assumptions and always check what you are getting!
Cloud Deployment
Maximum flexibility and cost saving can be made using our cloud service. This means your engineers can work anywhere they need to without expensive server infrastructure and workstation PCs. Minimum capital cost.
V/S
Traditional Installation
Assuming you have negotiated with your IT team for installation, your purchasing department for capital expenditure and your engineers to see how many licences you need locked to their workstation, this solution is looking a lot like a ball and chain!
Cloud Enterprise Integration
Arcadia was designed from the ground up to be a cloud based system. This means that it leverages the cream of the cloud technologies to ensure it can communicate to and from every other cloud system. Lets face it, you need to be aware that everything is shifting to the cloud.
V/S
Server Based Integration
The days of shared folders, windows networking and traditional databases are going the way of the dodo. We understand that legacy systems exist and Arcadia can still communicate with them, but you need to ask yourself - Should I really be using a legacy design tool?
